Professional AI-Powered Auto-Tracking

The Datavideo PTC-285T utilizes a sophisticated AI algorithm to maintain focus on your subject without the need for a dedicated camera operator. By designating a specific individual, the camera ignores background interference and crossing traffic, ensuring consistent framing during lectures or live performances. An integrated PID algorithm intelligently adapts the pan, tilt, and zoom speeds to match the subject's movement, providing a cinematic feel free from jerky interruptions.

Versatile Multi-Protocol Simultaneous Outputs

Designed to fit seamlessly into any broadcast or streaming environment, the PTC-285T keeps all its outputs active at the same time. You can push a high-bandwidth UHD 4K60 signal to a local monitor via HDMI while simultaneously streaming over IP and outputting 1080p60 to a professional SDI switcher. This flexibility allows for a highly redundant and adaptable workflow that meets the needs of modern hybrid events.

Simplified Long-Range Connectivity with HDBaseT

Large venues often present cabling challenges, but the PTC-285T solves these with built-in HDBaseT support. This technology allows you to extend your camera’s reach far from the controller or switcher using standard network cabling. When utilized with PoE, a single Cat 6 cable manages everything from power and tally lights to high-definition video transmission, significantly reducing installation time and infrastructure costs.

Exceptional Clarity with 12x Optical Precision

Equipped with a high-quality lens featuring 12x optical zoom, this camera excels at capturing detailed close-ups and wide room shots alike. The wide 80° field of view is ideal for smaller rooms, while the 16x digital zoom provides the extra reach needed for large houses of worship or lecture halls. To ensure broadcast-grade quality, advanced 3D noise reduction preserves image sharpness and color accuracy, even when lighting is less than ideal.
